Bohs members meeting last night

My cuz hows a bohs member for his sins filled me on some of their meeting last night

75 grand owed to the FAI after they used that money to pay players and bills. Money that was to given to the FAI from Ireland tickets that where sold by bohs

50+ grand owed to the revenue, who are getting tough over it and want the money asap

They only want to keep 4 players and have told the rest they aint needed (madden, greene, cronnin asa he's injured and cant get rid, and some other player thats on loan to shels, cant remember his name. The other contracted aint budging though

A large 6 figure sum is needed to get them through to next season

The FAI have told them that if they go into administration then they'll get an A championship licence at best

they need 50 grand by friday, 100 grand by friday week, and 150 grand by 30th nov or they wont get a licence.
Zurich will own dalymount car park if they cant pay them 4 million by 2012..
A break even budget for 2011 is planned at 1:2r mil

Fuck's sake. It's like the recession is reduced to a raincloud hanging over Phibsboro - not like anyone else was affected at all. Yes Bohs, the economy chose to pick on you, how unfair. Rovers fan told me today that Shelley and Keegan set to go to them. He'd also like Brennan to sign for them, though he admits he's a lunatic. It's going to be a fire sale...

finally their bubble has burst but for them to get into 5 million euros worth of debt makes a complete mockery of the licensing scheme,I have no sympathy for them they continued to gamble on euro success to finance them.They have to all extents and purposes been cheating year after year winning titles they shouldn't have won as they couldn't afford the team of players they were employing its a joke.

Spot on. They have bought league titles with money they hadent got. (same at Shels) Hope they go into examinership and we get European spot.

The FAI are set to keep the prize money they won this year to ensure they get paid

To ensure the people who run the league in the FAI can continue to get paid afterall thats the only reason they run a league plus by FIFA rules you need one in order to have a National Team in International events.

That's the one - knew it was one of those makey up tax haven countries we struggle to beat. Point remains you don't technically need a league of your own to field an International team. And even if the LOI collapsed altogether the FAI could just claim the LSL as our league if they so chose.
